We Must Become What We Wish To

Living Consciously Reflects The Conviction That Sight Is Preferable To Blindness; That Respecting The Facts Of Reality Is More Satisfying Than Denying Them; That Evasion Does Not Make The Unreal Real Or The Real Unreal; That It Is Better To Correct Your Mistakes That To Pretend They Do Not Exist; And That The More Conscious You Are Of Facts Bearing On Your Life And Goals, The More Wisely And Effectively You Can Act.

If You Have High Self-esteem, You Might Still Know Times Of Emotional Suffering, But Less Often And With Faster Recovery-your Resilience Is Greater.

The Higher Our Self-esteem, The Stronger The Drive To Express Ourselves, Reflecting The Sense Of Richness Within. The Lower Our Self-esteem, The More Urgent The Need To "prove" Ourselves Or To Forget Ourselves By Living Mechanically And Unconsciously.

Taking On Responsibilities That Properly Belong To Someone Else Means Behaving Irresponsibly Toward Yourself. You Need To Know Where You End And Someone Else Begins. You Need To Understand Boundaries. You Need To Know What Is And Is Not Up To You, What Is And Is Not In Your Control, What Is And Is Not Your Responsibility.

Be Careful What You Say To Your Children. They May Agree With You.
